Don’t forget the screening of “Star Trek: The Menagerie” at select theaters in the Tampa area on Nov. 13.

My big question for the past week has been this: Is Wristcutters worth seeing? My best friend and I are planning on moseying down to Tampa Theatre to see it before the end of its run.

Maf54 — It’s already in my post about next week’s events that I’m working on now. Those episodes (pts 1 & 2) aren’t among my favorites, but I’m still gonna go see ‘em on the big screen. Thanks for the reminder!
Wendy — I don’t know. The score on Rotten Tomatoes is around 70% or so, but I haven’t had a chance to read any reviews. Let me know what you think after you see it.

Hey, FilmFan .. I am seeing them at Citrus Park Mall. If you’re there, come sit with us, or at least say hello.
I’m with you. Menagerie is not my favorite … but with the new Star Trek movie seemingly recreating all of that … why not.
SyFy Portal is posting an interview Monday with my good friend Eugene Roddenberry Jr., who is hosting the broadcast.

Michael — Nice interview! I updated the post (on my blog) about the screening and added a link to your interview. Also, thanks to you, I now know that there are screenings Thursday night too.
I’ll be at the Regency 20 in Brandon; otherwise I’d definitely come say hello and sit directly behind you and unwrap my candy *really* loudly.
